The Leddy Library supports the dissemination of new scholarship by undergraduates, graduates, faculty, and staff at the University of Windsor in a variety of forms. Through the Scholarship at UWindsor repository, we are able to support the dissemination of theses and dissertations which provides increased visibility to the work of our graduate students. We also use the repository to support conferences run on our campus by helping the organizers manage the submission, workflow and publication process. As longstanding supporters of Open Journal Systems the library helps to publish and maintain several journals run from our campus. We have also launched our first open access monograph series, Windsor Studies in Argumentation, with the Open Monograph Press software. Providing support for open access is a central concern in all of our publishing endeavors. We seek to educate our users about the value of open access and to encourage various forms of open access publication.

We plan to help develop new opportunities for publishing at the undergraduate level. We hope to expand our conference publishing initiatives. We will continue add new journals and book series to our OA collections.
